Hi all,
I have just taken delivery of 57 CD's, someone's old collection, some of them are right up my street others I've never heard of. There is alot of 1999 - 2003 RnB which I would never play as I don't do that type of set. So my delema should I keep hold of them just in case I get a request or sell them.

I did only pay £1.20 plus postage for the lot off ebay!

I'd consider keeping the ones that you like, or think that you would play, then group the ones that you dont want, together into genre specific "lots" and re-e-bay them again.

How many CD's do I carry that I never play worried that one day someone may ask for a particular track...

If you want to keep them, bung them in a cd-folder and leave them in your car at gigs; if someone requests it, you can always nip outside for it.

Agree with bigben

I have about 10,000 tracks at each gig.........just in case, I will use about 0.01% of them at 90% of gigs but one day someone will ask for Doris Day or Brotherhood Of Man, also good for a laugh now and again







BTW this isn't meant to turn the topic into how many tracks you have.

Agree with Bigben!
I keep mine in a CD folder in the care just in case.

Keep them.

They're not costing you anything to keep, and you may be able to astound somebody one day when they say "I don't suppose you've got ****", and you pull it out of the bag.

Personnally i would keep them as the larger the collection you have the better off you will always be. And you could also lend them out to anoyjer dj you are quite well known with.

Don't worry Frankie, I have them all.
